The politologist Atis Lejins sets out on a risky trip to Afganistan to find a former mujahideen commandant, to return his heart’s debt for saving his life during the USSR invasion in the 80ies. At that time also young men from Latvia fought and died in Afganistan without the right to choose.

Following the tragic events of September 11, 2001, in New York and the fall of the Taliban regime, Latvians are back to Afganistan – as part of NATO missions.
